Re: Pesterchum Quirks thread: Request and post your quirks here!

Ugh, okay, after fiddling around with it, I figured out it was some weird cache thing with Pesterchum where it only showed up as it was when I last logged in. I think I just needed to hit Reload Function.

Ah well, I've got it how I want it now. Thanks for putting up with my incompetence!

Re: Pesterchum Quirks thread: Request and post your quirks here!

I just use Simple replace for this stuff to be honest. Don;t think there's another way to do it.

Simple replace: Okay, okay, Ok, OK, ok, K, k (do each individually- make sure you put a space before and after each one, unless if it starts with a capital later, in which case just put it after)
With: Potassium (with spaces before and after or just after depending on what you did for the before).

Actually, you can do regexp replace.

Regexp: ([oO][kK][aA][yY]|[oO][kK]|[kK]
replace: Potassium

Re: Pesterchum Quirks thread: Request and post your quirks here!

OKAY, so I basically AM asking FOR a QUIRK that ALTERNATES between UPPER and LOWER caps EVERY other WORD. I currently HAVE one, BUT it DOES not WORK with APOSTROPHES. IT also DOESN'T cap THE last TWO words IN a sentence. <--Like that.
Regexp: (\w+) (\w+)
Replace: upper(\1) \2
This is exactly what I am using, which is directly copy and pasted from the pesterchum forum, because this was used as an example, which coincidentally is a quirk I wanted, however it doesn't quite work as planned. So, any thoughts about this predicament?

Re: Pesterchum Quirks thread: Request and post your quirks here!

Nice. Well, let's just wait and see if there's anything that can come of this. The person who was using the quirk I suggested was one of the creators of Pesterchum, so it might have been a bit of an exploit on his part. *shrug*

Re: Pesterchum Quirks thread: Request and post your quirks here!

I did something like that, but it doesn't work very well. IRC limits you to 512 characters per post; Pesterchum automatically splits messages that are that long into two shorter messages. This doesn't come up very often, but a quirk which changes colour every letter replaces each character with 15 characters, so you'll need to be concise.

Anyway, the way I did it was random regex replace (.) with <c=#ff0000>\1</c>, with about 8 different random selections where I changed the hex code each time.

If you want numbers to be counted, change regexp to
([a-zA-Z0-9'}+,*)([.,?!\s]|)([a-zA-Z0-9']+|)

<note the | is a pipe, not an L, it's shift+\>

Try snowyowl's thing V
Except, don't do the </c> at the end. That appears to not be needed.

If you want an actual gradient though, I can make one if you provide 2-4 color points in hexcode.

Re: Pesterchum Quirks thread: Request and post your quirks here!

holy crap that's still a bit extreme, i will be adjusting that stutter, but i think it should work [instead of every letter 10 times it's now random letter 3-5 times, which is acceptable for now]

any ideas what words should be errors and/or synonyms? also can somebody supply me a lambda? is there a symbol that could accurately represent aperture science? i get a strong feeling these questions don't belong here, but i don't know where else to put them

Why is nobody getting the reference right? I mean, it's pretty obvious. Stop thinking about dicks. This is specifically a thread about lesbians. You think you're gonna see penises somewhere? I'm sure even Calmasis doesn't have one! And Dirk is an eunuch!

no
it's been done
no one will ever stop thinking about dicks
the two of us have the only clean brains in a writhing hivemind of palpitating sausage-serpents weaving in an out of a collective conscience of peen. It is a giant, festering greymatter, with throbbing trousersnakes digging within each fold.

WHAT?! OHGODWHAT. No, no, lP, we are not discussing penises again. We both know what happened last time we did that. IT DID NOT END WELL.

Re: Pesterchum Quirks thread: Request and post your quirks here!

thanks, i've added those as well as added one more for room and given them each a unique error that will randomly appear, will now be implementing the lambda to replace lower case "a" and have all uppercase "A" replaced with either two or three, or maybe any battery type [triple A, double A, D-cell, etc], and don't worry about the aperture symbol, for that i guess i'll just use 0, too bad we can't italicize, that would work much better, also to get any number of A to be 2 or three i do [in random replace]
